this is about verse 19....many are sayings that they are followers of lord jesus but the world loves them because they also participated in traditions,customs and occassions that imposed by religions politics and commerce...The true followers of lord jesus were all in this world but not part of it,no more traditions,customs and occassions the reason why the world hated them.

Verse 18 We know that the world back in Jesus' day had a deep hatred for him so we can expect the same hatred by the world if we are truly imitating Jesus.

First to God be the Glory !!! I do believe in The works of our Lord and savior Jesus Christ . I believe every word spoken when we who believe , in Christ we hardly fit in amongst others . we just can't seems to walk talk think as the unbeliever do as we have become spiritual so our lives just not the same so we become as out siders .

Revelation 3:21 reveals that the Conquering CHRIST is NOW sitting on the THRONE at the Right Hand of His FATHER GOD.
John 10:17 "Therefore doth My Father LOVE Me, because I lay down My Life, that I might TAKE IT AGAIN"
John15:13 "Greater LOVE hath no man than this, that a man lay down his [worldly] life for his friends [and Live his Life as a Soldier of Christ] CHRIST is not telling you to die

The wicked boasts by saying, Most assuredly Jesus Christ came in the flesh. For the same murdered the Son, even the risen Christ, and imagines to again (though he testifies not that Christ is come.) It is written, He that hates me hated my Father also. If I had not done among them the works which none other man did, they had not had sin: but now have they both seen and hated both me and my Father.

Jesus gave the command for his followers to have a deep self sacrificing love for one another the same way he showed loved for us.

I know from experience Jesus is Lord of my soul because covetousness of others or more things leave one feeling empty and restless to His purposes,nothing seems to satisfy. So I'm glad my father sets me straight.

JOHN 15:13 GREATER LOVE HATH NO MAN THAN THIS THAT A MAN LAY DOWN HIS LIFE FOR HIS FRIENDS ACTS 4:34 neither was there any among them that lacked for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them and brought the prices of the things that were sold --4:35-- and laid them down at the apostles feet and distribution was made unto every man according as he had need

JOHN 15:6 IF A MAN ABIDE NOT IN ME HE IS CAST FORTH AS A BRANCH AND IS WITHERED AND MEN GATHER THEM AND CAST THEM INTO THE FIRE AND THEY ARE BURNED 1 JOHN 1:6 if we say that we have fellowship with HIM and walk in darkness we lie --- AND DO NOT THE TRUTH JOB 38:2 who is this that darkeneth counsel with words without knowledge

--- JOHN 15:3 NOW YOU ARE CLEAN THROUGH THE WORD WHICH I HAVE SPOKEN TO YOU ---EPHESIANS 5:25 HUSBANDS LOVE YOUR WIVES EVEN AS CHRIST ALSO LOVED THE CHURCH AND GAVE HIMSELF FOR IT --5:26-- THAT HE MIGHT SANCTIFY AND CLEANSE IT WITH THE WASHING OF WATER BY THE WORD OF GOD ISAIAH 12:3 THEREFORE WITH JOY SHALL YOU DRAW WATER OUT OF THE WELLS OF SALVATION

There is but 1 God the FATHER BUT THIS 1 GOD HAS a Son whom he instructs all the Angels to worship. Jesus was an absolute son not token son like adam and the FATHER SAYS I WILL MAKE HIM MY 1ST BORN ( OF MANY BRETHREN ) NOW WE SEE 1 GOD IN 2 FATHER AND SON BOTH GOD AND THE FATHER MAKES A PROMISE TO HIS ONLY SON THAT HE WD MULTIPLY HIS SEED AS THE STARS OF HEAVEN IN SO DOING GOD WILL BE MULTIPLEID

There is but one God. This in the main tenent of the Holy Bible. But there be many servants, and Jesus being the foremost, so that he was known of, just as he knew God intimately. As a Jew, I have struggled with the NT, just as the Jews in Zion did. But to become lifted in spirit by God, to be guided and protected by God is the reward available to all, Christians,Jews,and Muslims alike, alike!

When I thought that God was not hearing my prayer because of disobedience i prayed and that is the chapter that God gave me to read and I shall forever stay connected no matter what!!!! I LOVE THE LORD MY GOD WITH ALL MY HEART!!!!

John 15 tells us that we must stay connected to the "True Vine" which is Jesus the Christ, ask yourself "am I connected to the Vine?" You will know by the fruit that you bear, you will know by the love that you show, you will know by the life you live, others may ask of you why are you so happy and at peace. Live by the ten commandments, live by the fruits of the spirit and stay hooked to the Vine

JOHN 15:4 abide in ME and I in you as the branch cannot bear fruit of itself except it abide in the vine --- NO MORE CAN YOU EXCEPT YOU ABIDE IN ME --- 5:5-- I AM THE VINE YOU ARE THE BRANCHES HE THAT ABIDETH IN ME AND I IN HIM THE SAME BRINGETH FORTH MUCH FRUIT --- FOR WITHOUT ME YOU CAN DO NOTHING ---

I love this verse. In everything we do we must have love. Love without truth is deception. Truth without love is hate.

It continues to teach us to love one another. Christ taught his disciples to carry on after he returned to the Father, and one he taught them to teach was the love for one another we should all do.

When I Look back over my Life I know the LORD abide in me and I abide in his. Thank you Father for your son Jesus
Love🙏🙏🙏

The Lord Jesus call Those who Obey Him Freind! I hate to be a enemy of God Almighty!

Verse 20~Jesus was a perfect man and he was persecuted without just cause so his disciples can expect the same treatment.

JOHN 15:3 --- NOW YOU ARE CLEAN --- THROUGH THE WORD WHICH I HAVE SPOKEN UNTO YOU EPHESIANS 5:3 but fornication and --- all uncleanness --- or covetousness let it not be once named among you as becometh saints 1 THESSALONIANS 4:7 for GOD hath not called us unto uncleanness but unto holiness HEBREWS 12:14 FOLLOW PEACE WITH ALL MEN AND HOLINESS WITHOUT WHICH --- NO MAN SHALL SEE THE LORD ---

Verse 19~Jesus' followers are to be no part of the world in speech, attitude, and conduct.

JOHN 15:9 as THE FATHER hath loved me so have I loved you continue in MY love --15:10-- IF YOU KEEP -- MY commandments you shall abide in MY love even as I have kept MY FATHERS commandments and abide in HIS love JOHN 14:15 IF you love ME keep MY commandments 1 JOHN 2:5 but whoso keepeth his word in him verily is the love of GOD perfected hereby know we that we are in HIM

Jay: Wherefore He is Able also to Save Them to The Uttermost that come Unto God by Him, Seeing He Ever Liveth to Make Intercession for Them.( Hebrews 7:25). We don't Keep Ourselves Saved. We're Keep by The Blood of The Lamb/ If You Offend in One Point, to Keep The Whole Law, Your Guilty of All ( James 2:10)

God made me feel special He has given it all to me all I need to do is ask for it and it is mine

I believe we must me sinless to keep our salvation. Other wis we would not need repentance, we must live in accordance with his commandments. Or we are living as sinners. Through Grace we were given ability to live by his commandments in order not to sin and stand apart from sinners.

Jay, For ye are saved by grace through faith and that not of yourselves it is the gift of God not of works least any man should boast. Eph 2: 8-9 Salvation is a gift in a person Jesus Christ. You receive a gift or reject. Salvation is not by works you do not keep your salvation once received God does not take it back. John 10:28. .. John 3:7 Ye must be born again. Born of Gods Spirit by Faith.

Why he says Many are called but, few are chosen?

It s a whosoever will gospel. John 3:16. John 14:6 Jesus smith I am the way the truth and the life no man cometh unto the Father but by me. Mathew 7:14 to your point DD. Acts 20:21 repent turn from your sin, sinner! believe on the Lord Jesus Christ. Once saved the Spirit of God dwells in you and now you have the power to overcome sin if you walk in the Spirit not in the flesh. Rom8 2Cornth5:17

We are given an opportunity. To choose . While we live on this Earth. To live for Christ reject world .occupy till he returns. Not rejecting mankind we are to be fishers if nen. But not make the world our jo.e. For this reason . We overcome temptations of this world live for the promise of eternal life through Christ our redeemer. Our Lord and savior.
